    Person Of Interest is beast. I wonder how good it would be with "low-talking loner badass" but it works and has some good twists.
    I think I stopped watching the first episode of Ringer at the very scene Oleg posted. Missing turned out to be much worse that I thought it would be, first episode of course.
    Missing was fantastic.

    Funny enough, the great thing is that it can be watched as a one-shot now.

    I tried to watch a couple of episodes of Missing but I could never get past the part of Ashley Judd being so preposterously wrong for the part.
    In which universe am I suppose to believe that she is an unstoppable assassin?

    Remember this is with me having no problem with 5'2'' SMG as a vampire killing machine.

    I actually liked how out of the blue, soccer mom starting kicking ahole. Plus, she wasn't some unstoppable assassin. She simply knew how to fight...well. She gets her ass kicked often in the show.

    The ending, the very ending sucked tho' and since it's a one-shot now, that ending can be ignored.

    I think you miss my point. I had no problem with the dichotomy of Mom/agent thing .The problem I had was in the parts I watched Ms Judd couldn't even run non-spastically for the 5 seconds needed for a take.
    An actor (see my SMG reference as she ran like a gimp also) doesn't necessarily need to bring all the physicality required to a part like this but if they don't then them damn sure better make up for it in acting ability.Judd didn't.The term flaccid to describe both her physic and acting come to mind.
    Respect my lack of authority.

    Well, you obviously didn't watch the show enough to even know. I can't say her acting was Emmy Award winning but it was good and her physique and energy showed well throughout the series.

    Fuck, it was already taken down. I'll put it up on Vimeo instead.

    Edit: Wait it works in my post, just not yours, wtf did you do to my link?

    Edit2: You converted all the capitals to lowercase, YT is case-sensitive.
